Re: 2025 Southern Side X Side Championship and Exhibition

The aforementioned widgeon was surgically removed from the sky with 7/8oz, 7.5's out of a full choked 20ga. Sterlingworth. Who needs a 10? 8) 8) When heavy lift is required, the Mighty 10 will do the job :D :D :D [/quote] The steadfast 20 is all a gunner needs if he is proficient in his craft. :lol:

Re: 2025 Southern Side X Side Championship and Exhibition

I carried a ten gauge AYA shooting 1 3/4 ounces of steel #2 and BB for several years. I should apologize for some of the shots I took with that gun. However, I would rather brag than apologize. The aforementioned widgeon was surgically removed from the sky with 7/8oz, 7.5's out of a full choked 20g...

No, actually closer to 200 than 20. But who's counting? :D

Nope, never seen one. Is it a rifle?

Re: 2025 Southern Side X Side Championship and Exhibition

I'll try to print some pics off my computer of Fox/game. It's a shame we didn't get a picture of that widgeon and the 20ga Sterly on that memorable day in SD. I'm sure you remember that one. 8)

I'm sure she would be. Labs make the best pheasant dogs if they are under control.

Re: Preferred Cases for various tasks

Re: 2025 Southern Side X Side Championship and Exhibition

Stay tuned for a proposed Fox shooting event suggested by Craig L. I've been trying to get Fox shooters together for a round or two of clays at Drake Landing in the past to no avail so hopefully we can pull this one off at Deep River.
